Tide coefficient 96 for the 7:29 am high tide and 90 for the 7:17 pm high tide. Spring tides. The water rises and falls 7.0 ft between the highest high and the lowest low: a large range for this place. 70 is an average tide here; 90 and above means spring tides; below 45, neap tides. What is the tide coefficient?

2026 extremes: the highest tide of the year is on April 19 (3.7 ft) and the lowest, on May 18 (-3.9 ft).

Mixed: two high and two low tides a day, but of quite different heights.

Tide coefficient and range in October

Where this tide comes from

M · Global model

Kalian has no tide station nearby: its tide is calculated with the global FES2022 model, from the nearest model cells offshore (the first one 2.4 mi away). It may differ from the real tide by a few minutes and inches, and more with wind or storms. Heights are above mean sea level, not chart datum, so low tides are negative. Not for navigation.

Model attribution: FES2022 Tide was produced by LEGOS, NOVELTIS and CLS, funded by CNES, and distributed by AVISO (https://doi.org/10.24400/527896/a01-2024.004), AVISO licence (https://www.aviso.altimetry.fr/fileadmin/documents/data/License_Aviso.pdf). Modified by TidePlanet: constants interpolated from the nearest model cells offshore; heights above mean sea level.

How we calculate the tide

Sea and waves

The sea at Kalian

7-day waves

Sea stateSea state: slight

Slight Douglas 3 · light breeze, Beaufort 2
Waves 1.8 ft · 9.8 s from the east (94°)
Swell 1.7 ft · 8.2 s from the east
Current 0.1 mph toward the SSE

The waves you may find

  • Most commonMost common0.9 ft
  • Significant1.8 ft
  • Highest expectedHighest3.5 ft

One wave in seven is higher than the significant height, and about 3 times a day one reaches 3.5 ft. Before heading out, expect waves of up to 3.5 ft.

Wind on the coast and offshore

On the coast 4 mph NE · gusts 9

The model doesn't separate offshore wind here: it's the same as on the coast.

Cross-onshore wind. The coast faces east and the wind comes in from the sea at an angle: a bit more surf at the shore and drift along the coast, toward land.

Water temperature changes how fish behave: in very cold or very warm water they feed less. The water is steady these days, with no sudden changes.

Water warmer than normal for late October (+1.3 °F).

The best window, 9:00 am to 1:00 pm, has glassy water. 5:02 am to 8:00 am also works, with glassy water.

An estimate for this stretch of coast, not for a specific break: every beach or reef works its own way (its tide, bottom and angle). Check it when you get there.

Follow the flags and the lifeguards, and don’t paddle out if the surf is above your level: this score is a guide, not a substitute for what you see when you get there.

Your diving day at a glance

The best window, 12:00 pm to 2:00 pm, combines slack water at low tide, light wind, weak current and the sun high. Also good from 6:50 am to 8:10 am, with slack water at high tide, light wind and weak current.

Slack water comes from the tide: in inlets, channels and between islands the water can keep running for an hour or two after. Ask the local dive shop.

Solunar periods

Today's activity: medium
  • 12:40–2:40 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity
  • 1:12–3:12 pm Major · the moon passes underfoot · high activity
  • 7:39–8:39 am Minor · moonset · medium activity
  • 7:46–8:46 pm Minor · moonrise · medium activity

According to solunar theory, fish feed more when the moon passes overhead or underfoot (major periods, about 2 h) and when it rises or sets (minor periods, 1 h). It works best around new and full moon.

Water depth

Gentle slope

The bottom slopes gently: 16 ft deep 0.35 mi from shore and 33 ft at 0.4 mi. It reaches 164 ft at 0.6 mi.

From the shoreline (1,050 ft from Kalian) out to sea, heading east.

How far from shore

  • 16 ft deep0.35 mi
  • 33 ft deep0.4 mi
  • 66 ft deep0.5 mi
  • 164 ft deep0.6 mi

For fishing, swimming and diving

  • Shore fishing. Shallow, gradual bottom (16 ft at 0.35 mi): cast far from the beach and fish the high tide, when there is more water close in.
  • Swimming. A very gentle way in with plenty of shallow water, good for kids. At low tide the water can be far out.
  • Diving. Shore diving works here: 33 ft at 0.4 mi and 66 ft at 0.5 mi from shore.

Rough estimate: here the data comes in cells of about 0.3 mi and misses details near shore (rocks, sandbars, small coves).

Source: NOAA ETOPO 2022 (CC0), cells of about 0.3 mi; depth below mean sea level. For reference only: not for navigation or anchoring.
